Early Word on the Ping i15 Iron



  • Just like the driver series you should expect to see the iron lineup drop around the 10th of August.
  • The photos courtesy of GolfWrx show some great detail of these irons but there is still a lot unknown about this iron set. The first thing you'll notice is the busy badge on the back which I believe looks pretty great. 
  • With the i15 set being geared more towards the player a lot of people anticipated a graduated set. Meaning that we were hoping to see less offset starting from 3 iron all the way through pitching wedge. Without specs or measurements you can't really tell but it does seem to be reduced in these photos.
  • I think with the amount of feedback we've received from our customers Ping probably did some research in the graduated set idea so that everyone could get their desired high ball flight from the long irons but would still be able to flight the shorter irons to their liking.
  • There is a noticeable Tungsten plug in the toe just like in the Rapture V2 series. We're excited to give this a try and see how it effects the ball flight in comparison to its predecessor the i10.
  • There looks to be two new grip options that look to provide a LOT of traction, hopefully they won't be too aggressive and be very abrasive on the hands.
  • Besides this we're still a bit in the dark like the rest of the public with what exactly we should expect from this Ping i15 iron series.
  • Ping has never been one to release something just because the product life cycle is up and I don't think this will be an exception. We're looking forward to getting our hands on these and doing a full report as soon as we possibly can!
